UTAH MEN DECORATED. Two Ogden men have already been mentioned in the dispatches from France because of exceptional gallantry in the fighting against the Huns Lieut. Littlefield and Lieut. Conroy. Ogden is proud of the record that these two fighting men, both prominent in the business and social affairs of Ogden, have already attained in the world war. It shows just what kind of men. Utah is sending to the battle front. The list of those decorated as was Lieut. Littlefield, is not extensive so far. neither is the list of those cited for brave conduct. For that reason there is added distinction to the tact that these two have already taken such a prominent part. Lieut. Conroy's record was made through his courageous leadership of a small band of Americans when they were outnumbered by the Huns. Like that of his fellow townsman, his record was made directly under fire and in most trying circumstances. Those circumstances have been enough to show just how determined these two Utah men are to see the brutal Huns beaten. Other Utah men will follow in their footsteps. June 4
